Japanese investors dump overseas bonds

Japanese investors sold the most overseas debt in a month. This is on concerns over monetary tightening by the world’s major central banks. According to Japan’s Ministry of Finance data, domestic investors sold a net 3.2 trillion Japanese yen ($27.64 billion) in overseas bonds. Meanwhile, the data showed they bought foreign equities worth 322 billion yen.

BoFA said that the Bank accounts sold foreign bonds in February. This is likely reflecting positional unwinding in the first half of the month, as the global yields rose before falling due to the Ukraine shock. It is also true that Japanese bonds bear-steepened a lot in February. Naka Matsuzawa, chief Japan macro strategist at Nomura said that they reduced relative attractiveness of foreign bonds, because there are growing concern over policy change at the BoJ. The total sales of foreign bonds and equities in the first two months of this year stood at 2.46 billion yen.
